The Legend of the Great Wilderness

Chapter 269 Indispensable Existence-1
"Gu Zuo is very interested, are you here to enjoy the snow?"

Rong Wei reluctantly twitched the corners of his mouth, revealing a dry smile, which was regarded as a greeting to Guyi.

Gu Yi was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously glanced at Hu Hu, Hu Hu turned the corner of his mouth slightly, expressing that he didn't know what was going on.

Gu Yi, who was confused, could only meet Yili and Rong Wei, and he was his subordinate anyway, so he said with a dry smile: "Master Rong Wei is here to inspect the defense of our [-]th Cave?"

Rong Wei was silent for a while, inspecting the defense?You built the Eighteenth Cave like this, forcing the rebels to go to other [Blade Edge Gorge] tunnels, and who else can inspect it?

"There are some military matters to discuss with Gu Zuoling..."

Rong Wei was also not good at words, although he decided in his heart that he would no longer be an enemy of this monstrous giant crocodile, but he just couldn't show his face to lower his attitude, so he had no choice but to say this bluntly.

"Uh, military affairs?"

Gu Yi glanced at Rong Wei inexplicably, and said to himself: If you have military affairs, don't go to Hu Hu [the commander of the capital], tell me a lieutenant! ?
But everyone knew what was going on, and Gu Yi didn't bother to be polite with Rong Wei, so he simply asked Rong Wei to go to the office of "Blade Edge Gorge Front Command" in the No. 12 War Fortress for a detailed discussion.

After getting off the old city wall, I randomly found a nearby blockhouse and walked in. I went down to the second basement level of the blockhouse and got on a "manpower lever rail car". The group of people quickly moved with the lever supported by two guards. Returned to the underground of the NO.12 War Fortress, and then took the twisted cable elevator inside the building, and went up to the front finger office on the top floor of the fortress amidst the crisp rolling sound of gears.

This shocked Rong Wei and the others again. From the surface, the war buildings that looked like isolated islands were covered with underground tunnels like complex spider webs, directly connecting all the war buildings. Became a whole!
That is to say, no matter which war building the enemy attacks, it is equivalent to contending with the overall defenders of the NO.12 War Fort. , it is impossible to trap them to death from the outside!

The more Rong Wei and the others learned about this place, the more frightened they became. How many hidden cards in this terrifying war fortress have not been revealed?
Maybe it was too much stimulation, after Rong Wei and others sat down at the long conference table in Qianzhi's office, they were silent all the time when the orderly brought refreshments.

Guyi was not in a hurry, he was outside for a long time with the cold wind blowing, just in time to drink some hot tea to warm him up, after a while, Rong Wei suddenly opened his mouth amidst Gu Yi's continuous sound of drinking tea Said: "If you want to build all the 36 Caves [Blade Edge Gorge] in [Jianshi Mountain] into the [-] Caves, how much will you need?"

Rong Wei asked abruptly, but everyone present was not surprised. Gu Yi, who was sipping tea, almost choked, put down the white porcelain teacup in his hand, did not speak, and stared at Rong Wei After a while, after confirming that he was not joking, Gu Yi smiled and asked: "What do you think?"

Rong Wei frowned: "I wonder what Shaoyi wants?"

Gu Yi said with a smile: "It depends on what the adults can give me."

Rong Wei became more and more embarrassed: "Shaoyi just opens his mouth for whatever he likes."

Gu Yi scratched his head: "I really don't care much..."

The conversation between the two was like a riddle, and others who heard it were confused, but from the names they called each other, everyone knew that the two who had conflicts seemed to have reached a settlement.

Gu Yi's attitude of refraining from oil and salt made Rong Wei somewhat annoyed, but Gu Yi waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't blame my lord, it's not that I'm humble and deliberately rejecting your kindness, it's just what my lord said, that the Cave 36 [Blade Edge Gorge] position Well, the completion of all eighteen caves is simply impossible if it is discussed as a business!"

Rong Wei was puzzled: "Why?"

"Let me do the math for you, the Eighteen Caves of [Blade Edge Gorge] are about 82 feet long and nine feet wide. Just laying the cement floor consumes nearly 6000 million yuan of building materials. All kinds of building materials are produced and sold by us [Tiangong Group] at cost price! Manpower, equipment, freight... and so on have not been calculated yet!"

Gu Yi smiled: "That is to say, if you want to place an order with us [Tiangong Group], we will charge you at least 2000 million RMB, which is double the price just for laying the floor. , so you won’t lose money.”

Rong Wei took a deep breath. How much money would it cost just to lay the floor?

Although Guyi said it tactfully, Rong Wei instantly understood what Guyi meant: "You don't have that much money!"

Rong Wei opened his mouth unwillingly, but he couldn't make a sound. He originally wanted to say that he would follow the example of those town lords in [Ironforge Castle] and use the resources of the town to pay for the debt, but he didn't think about it until the words came to his mouth. Come to think of it, under my own name, there are not many fiefdoms to reach.

"but……"

Just when Rong Wei was very disappointed, Gu Yi uttered half a sentence, which almost caused Rong Wei to overturn the table: Nima!I hate panting the most!
With flickering eyes, Gu Yi tapped the heavy wooden conference table with his fingers: "Actually, you don't have to be embarrassed, and it's not impossible to do what you want... If you agree, you can use the model of 'who builds, who owns' Cooperate with us [Tiangong Group].”

Rong Wei couldn't stand Gu Yi's panting way of speaking, and asked directly: "What is 'who builds and who owns'? What kind of cooperation is this 'cooperation'?"

"I think my lord should have some 'understanding' about us [Tiangong Group]. We don't lack money! We don't lack food! We don't lack supplies! We don't lack manpower either!"

Guyi smiled and said: "To be honest, [Qingshi collar] is not as some people imagined, intending to plot mountains and rivers, what we are looking for is just a shelter, although [Qingshi collar] is not big , but enough to stand on..."

Rong Wei is silent, money, grain, materials, manpower, what Gu Yi said, they [Qingshi Ling] and [Tiangong Group] are far from lacking!
There are endless skills in the so-called "Secrets of Heavenly Craftsmanship", if you take any one out, money is like dung that can be picked up. If you have money, can't you still buy food and fodder?With food and fodder, can't we still hire manpower?

It can be seen from the huge population gathered in the [Qingshi collar] in a short period of time, those slaves who are regarded as wasting food in other places like livestock, under their rule, can be artisans, can be The source of soldiers can be anyone they want the slaves to be. Who told them to have the capital, strength, and technology to feed such a huge population and train them to be useful people?

Rong Wei didn't make a sound. With his sophistication and cunning, it is natural to see that Gu Yi said this in front of him, not to show off or brag. There is no need for him. At this time, he who is already at a disadvantage does not need to What are you talking about, just quietly wait for the other party to say the conditions.

While speaking, Gu Yi, who was observing Rong Wei's expression, finally confirmed Rong Wei's attitude. He really planned to give up the conflict and cooperate with them, so he stopped talking and directly stated his "asking price" : "What we [Tiangong Group] are looking for is nothing more than a 'convenience'!"

Convenient?

Rong Wei stared angrily, what a huge scope of this request!
Once they are allowed to do everything "conveniently", it means that they have completely lost their constraints and restrictions. Wouldn't they be able to do whatever they want?So what is the difference between the so-called [Tiangong Group] and the Supreme Emperor in [Ironforge]?Then what is the significance of his existence as a Rong Wei?
This is simply not paying attention to his Rong Wei, and not paying attention to the [Rong people] behind him. If it gets bigger, I am afraid that even the emperor of the [Dayou Dynasty] is not taken seriously1
Seeing that Rong Wei was about to get angry, Gu Yi quickly waved his hand: "My lord, don't be annoyed, being humble is not a mockery of you, but just stating a fact. To put it bluntly, in terms of force, we [Qingshi collar] are in [Iron Furnace] Fortress] is already invincible, if you really want to be the one who rebelled against the chaos, split the soil and ruled the land as king, and only rely on the [Ironforge] guards under the command of your lord, there is really nothing you can do about us!"

Rong Wei was dumbfounded for a moment, what Gu Yi said was really a "truth".

They are far more than "invincible", if their [Blue Stone Territory] defense can have half of this [Blade Edge City]... no!If they can be one-tenth of [Blade's Edge City], and they don't have any worries, they can completely rule the law in [Ironforge].

And with the current chaos in [Zhongyouyu], the [Rong people] behind him have no time to take care of themselves, and they are powerless to sanction him. What can the [Jiepin] warriors and six 10,000+ [animal level] soldiers do?
"My lord, don't blame the humble words and rudeness. The reason for saying this is just to tell my lord that what you and I want are not 'conflicting'. I believe you have also seen that we [Tiangong Group] don't ask for territory. I can use it for what I want, as for who the owner of this territory is, it has nothing to do with us."

Seeing that Rong Wei was discouraged, Gu Yi knew that he had convinced the other party, so he laughed and said: "Even, the existence of us [Tiangong Group] is a good thing for the lord of the territory! From this point of view, at this moment The [Ironforge] will know!"

Rong Wei reacted after a moment of surprise. Indeed, [Ironforge] was able to maintain the current situation in the troubled times, thanks to the existence of [Tiangong Group] in the territory, which not only attracted merchants from all over the world, The economy has prospered, taxes have been increased, and a large amount of grain has been brought in, so that the common people in [Ironforge] will not suffer from food shortage.
